IB Diploma Programme (DP) & IB Careers-related Programme (CP) Overview
The main programme for Years 12 and 13 study is the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (DP), where students can follow the full DP or choose individual DP courses at Higher or Standard Level. For those with defined career aspirations, we proudly offer the IB Careers-related Programme (CP), providing an alternative pathway tailored to their future goals.
Guided by our core values - Be Curious, Be Responsible, Be Inclusive, and Be Generous - Sha Tin College provides a learning environment where every student is encouraged to explore their intellectual potential while contributing to the wellbeing of the community.
We foster curiosity by nurturing a love for learning that extends beyond the classroom, challenging students to ask thoughtful questions, embrace diverse perspectives, and approach problems creatively and critically. Intellectual wellbeing is a key focus, ensuring our students not only develop academic skills but also maintain a balanced, thoughtful approach to their personal growth and lifelong learning.
We believe that Responsibility is not only about academic rigour but also about cultivating a sense of ownership over one’s learning journey and actions. Our students are empowered to make informed decisions and take initiative, while being supported in their emotional, social, and intellectual development.
Inclusivity is central to who we are. We welcome students of all abilities and backgrounds into a community where respect and understanding thrive. Through collaborative learning experiences, students develop empathy, open-mindedness, and the ability to work with others toward shared goals.
Finally, Generosity—both in spirit and action—drives our students to use their knowledge and skills to positively impact the world around them. Whether through community service, leadership roles, or mentorship, our students learn that their contributions can make a difference in the lives of others.
Our dedicated staff, who engage in their own lifelong learning, serve as role models of these values. By fostering an environment where intellectual curiosity, personal responsibility, and mutual respect are paramount, we ensure that students are prepared not just academically, but holistically, for their future roles in an ever-changing world.
At Sha Tin College, we provide opportunities for broad and deep learning—both within and beyond the classroom—through stimulating academic and extracurricular programmes. We are excited to support our students as they embark on this final stage of their learning journey, ensuring they leave us as confident, compassionate, and capable global citizens.
